I had a '60's Western Auto Stores Western Flyer for my first build....the welds gave up where the seat post goes through the two smaller tubes, keep an eye on that.

Love the backdrop for the middle photo! | Since someone else brought up toilets , I have been saving this picture . I don't think that they could have made this seat look any more like a toilet if they tried .

i love it . my first build i actually took the time to modify the mounts and get it all perfect and mounted the motor. i stepped back to admire my fine work and thought "something isn't right here" the motor was mounted backwards just like yours in the picture. i love the old bike you found to build with. i am always watching for one but down here on the island rust eats them up bad and fast. can't wait to see it all done |

About 25 Yrs Ago I Bought A New Sthil Chainsaw, It Started But The Chain Would Not Go. I Dropped It Of At The Dealer, They Called Later, Said It Was Ready. They Said The Chain Brake Was On!! I Felt Almost As Bad As Jessie Jackson ! My Girl Friend Thought Safe Sex Was Having The Emergency Brake On,
